Spotted Munia Flock

Spotted munia (Lonchura punctulata) feeding in paddy fields

The sunset time, every single bird with their flock or just by its self are moving back to their "home". Months ago, i watched them in front of a Department store parking area. at that time, they had been perching in a palm tree.

A few days ago, i watched them in my neighbour's mango tree, a big and shade one.
I heard some noisy birdling and i guest it was come from Estriltidae (Family). Yes, i was right, that they are.

A huge flock i though, it might be hundreds bird flight aim to the vegetation. It doesn't clearly what the species is. But one of them i knew is Lonchura punctulata or spotted munia (Indonesia=Bondol peking). It doesn't need a long time till they felt pleasant at their bed and simply quite.
